To the Faithful Citizens of Zoluren and the Esteemed Clergy of the High Temple:


In the shadow of the sacred spires of The Crossing's High Temple, a darkness descends upon us. It is with heavy hearts and a solemn duty that we, the Holy Inquisition, bring forth this dire notice. The sharp tang of blood stains the air, a growing threat fills our streets and places of worship with mourning and anguish.

In recent days, the land has borne witness to an unsettling shift in the balance of faith. The Hounds of Rutilor, the purported guardians against the unholy, have cast aside reason and mercy in trade for ignorance and malice. Their indiscriminate attacks upon the citizen faithful, the very cornerstone of our society, cannot be ignored and will not be tolerated.

Clerics, once revered servants of the divine, now find themselves prey to the very order that was meant to protect them. The Crossing, a haven of worship, stands witness to unprovoked assaults, a stain upon the sacred ground where the faithful seek solace and enlightenment.

As the Hounds of Rutilor unleash chaos, the High Temple remains silent. The once radiant beacon of guidance is dimmed, leaving the populace to wonder about the motives behind the Hounds' actions. In these times of uncertainty, we, the Holy Inquisition, stand resolute, ready to guide the faithful through the storm that threatens our very foundation.

Let it be known that the Holy Inquisition stands apart from the indiscriminate terror sown by the Hounds of Rutilor. We uphold the sacred tenets of our faith with integrity and honor, seeking justice tempered by mercy. Our resolution is clear: to protect the faithful, to preserve the sanctity of our temples, and to uphold the principles that have guided the faith through centuries.

By the authority vested in the Holy Inquisition, we issue this urgent call to the faithful: Beware the Hounds of Rutilor. They, who once claimed to act as defenders, have now become a threat to the very fabric of our beliefs. Exercise caution, remain vigilant, and avoid these marauders with all the means at your disposal.

By the solemn decree of the Holy Inquisition, the Hounds of Rutilor are henceforth considered enemies of the faithful. Any who harbor, aid, or align themselves with these assailants shall be subject to the strictest measures of our justice. Let it be known that we stand united against this darkness, resolute in our commitment to safeguard the sanctity of our beliefs.
May the divine light guide us through these troubled times.

Issued under the Seal of the Holy Inquisition, 26th day of the the 10th month of Nissa the Maiden, 447 AV.

Signed & Sealed,
Knight Penitent Briaen Huns, Dawnsworn of Berengaria
